There were other SVC schools that played New Hope Christian. None of the others schools considered their games as scrimmages. It appears that since New Hope Christian is not a OHSAA member that Adena thought the game would not count as a regular season game. If this was their thinking they were wrong. Should have checked it out if they were not sure. Also I agree who has a "scrimmage" 18 or 19 games into the season. It appears now that Adena is trying to CTA for a mistake they made.

That would be interesting considering that Adena never even filed an appeal. You’d think before you lawyered up you would follow due process. Just a thought.
Yep

Did you not notice that the game is listed as a scrimmage on Arbiterlive?
Exactly :o

There’s no point in playing NHCA unless you need a date filled. That’s the only thing they’re consistently good for: being available.

Why would schools drop New Hope? Dozens of OHSAA member schools have played New Hope over the last several years and none have had this problem, because they knew how to count to 22. This is an Adena problem and Adena trying to scapegoat New Hope is ridiculous.

As for the forfeiture, I disagree with it. Fine Adena or allow them to only play 21 regular-season games next year. Taking away its tournament is ridiculous.

I am not blaming anyone and I guess really don't care. Mistakes happen, someone should have caught it before it got this far. It is a shame for the players. I just never understood why we played a team not affiliated with the OHSAA the last few years on the boys side and look for teams to use something like this as an excuse to stop playing them.

I agree! I hate it for the players. Someone should be punished but it darn sure shouldn’t be the players.

If this is pursued further the truth will come out. Arbiterlive can be edited, as it was on Feb 9, at 4:35pm.
Everyone makes mistakes. Its just too bad the kids are the ones suffering.

Curious as to if this was Harvest Prep or Africentric, would people believe the penalty is too stiff.

OHSAA Should allow the girls to play, but suspend coach and athletic director from attending any/all games.

It’s very very sad and harsh from the OHSAA to penalize the girls for adults incompetence. No way this ever should have happened. You don’t “scrimmage” in the middle of the season and when they charged people to get in you should have done something about it - BIG RED FLAG. Why were stats sent in? You don’t send in stats for scrimmage games.
Someone screwed up and they know they screwed up - DONT PUNISH THE GIRLS......

Just to clarify.

Scrimmages may be used ANYTIME throughout the season, including tournament

I understand the rule, I wasn't talking about that. I was saying there was no reason for a scrimmage. If it wasn’t on the original schedule why was it added? If it was on the original schedule you have bigger problem.

They had an 8 day gap between games, which would be a reason to schedule a scrimmage. Doesn't really matter, Adena AD screwed up, but the crime doesn't fit the punishment.
